Shapeshifter Parasite

°°°WPC 142 WINNER°°° | Male Lead - Space Thriller | ------------------------------------------------------------------ In the year 3202 greenhouse gas emissions and the resulting melting of glaciers, caused an endless series of natural disasters that led the Earth to collapse, making the air almost unbreathable and forcing the world's greatest leaders to adopt the extreme solution: finding a new habitable planet. It has been 5 years since the departure of HWSS Behemoth, the first Heavy Weight Spaceship of the "Project Nowhere" aimed at exploring new human-life suitable planets of planetary systems near our solar system, but after a message that confirmed the success of the mission, the signal with the spaceship was lost forever. The young Layton worked as a janitor handyman aboard the BS Voyager, the spacecraft destined to accomplish the most important mission for the future of the human race: tracking the Behemoth and establishing a safe route between Earth and the target planet, avoiding mass extinction. One day, while he was on his daily tasks, he found out that somebody got sick on board and that who knows that don't want to spread the news, assuming it is the work of a non-human being. From that day on, Layton will be the only one who’ll know this secret and must ensure, together with his allies, to alert the security officers of the BS Voyager of the presence of an unidentified alien being on board, without being discovered by the infected ones. Will the flight crew reach HWSS Behemoth and achieve the mission? What other dangers lurk aboard the Voyager? P.S. This is not my main novel, so in the first period, the stability of the updates may not be constant. Anyway, I hope you’ll enjoy it! ------------------------------------------------------------------ Contact me on Discord: Immanior_Ipse#6129 Follow me on Instagram: @immanioripse_author Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Immanioripse-Author-101625858453333 Twitter: @immanioripse

"All right, whatever! If you need a hand, you just have to tell me!" 

Layton made a false smile that lasted until Scott got out of the bathroom and the door closed.

"So, now listen to me well... I can't let the alien who took over Jennifer's body eat all the crew members! I have to stop her at all costs, and you will help me, explaining to me how to do it. The UV-A flashlight... does it work on her too?" Layton said, thinking aloud and grabbing the little torch from his pocket, looking at it.

After a few seconds of waiting, during which the parasite dig through Layton's memories, it realized that the one in his hands was not a simple flashlight but the instrument that had expelled its creator from its host body.

"Yes, I think it can work, but I'm not sure... it could..." 

As soon as he heard those words, Layton turned on the torch and pointed it straight into his eyes, holding it still for almost three seconds.
